>> today, as you look over the walls of remembrance, we want to share with you these words. "turn again to life." "if i should die and leave you here awhile, be not like others so long undone who keep long vigil by silent dust. for my sake, turn again to life and smile. die trembling hands and do something to help others. complete these der unfinished chances, and therein may i comfort you."

>> may god bless the heroes we lost on 9/11, the brave men and women who responded so courageously, the heroes we have lost since then defending our freedom, and the men and women today who risk their lives here and abroad to risk their freedom. no words can help the broken heart of a nation except those of a poem called "the names." it was written by a u.s. poet laureate. it was dedicated to those.

"names etched on the head of a pin spanning a bridge undergoing a tunnel names of citizens, mothers, and fathers the bright eyed a daughter, the sun. an alphabet of names in a field names lifted from a havt or balanced on the tip of a tom -- tip of a tongue so many names there is barely room on the walls of the heart."
